Bruno Tonioli stuns fans with pics of himself in ‘budgie smugglers’

Strictly judge, 63, has been working out

Bruno Tonioli proved he still has a dancer’s physique as he shared photos of himself in just his swimwear with his Instagram followers.

The Strictly judge uploaded the shirtless images from his time on holiday in Barbados with actress Lisa Locicero.

He wrote beside one picture of himself taken on a yacht wearing only white briefs: “Take me back… remembering our fun day on the boat @locicero_lisa”.

He added the hashtags #wherehasthesungone #barbados#funinthesun #budgiesmugglers.

The image gained more than 7,700 likes as Bruno’s fans complimented the 63-year-old’s toned appearance.

“Looking great Bruno,” said one. “WOW Bruno what a #Fitbody #Sexy,” said another.

“Good body Bruno,” observed a third, while a fourth added: “Some body on you Bruno!!”

Seemingly galvanised by the positive comments, two days later the Dancing With The Stars judge shared another image from the trip of him in his “budgie smugglers”.

This time he was wearing animal print briefs posing on a rock on the beach.

He wrote: “Thursday mood, sadly I’m more wrapped up but inside I am #budgiesmugglers #sun #2019planner.”

Once again, his followers were impressed by his bod, with one telling him, “What an incredible physique.”

Another agreed writing, “You look FAB-U-LOUS dahh..ling!” imitating his fellow Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood.

Not everyone liked the picture though, with one follower telling him: “Please put some shorts on Bruno, it’s 2019 and these trunks are just so outdated, and as a mature man you would look so much more sophisticated!”

Another agreed, commenting: “Oh my Bruno, those smugglers are so wrong in every way, get some shorts on.”

Others admitted they’d had to do a double take when they saw the picture as Bruno’s swimwear was so skimpy, they thought he was posing naked!

The Italian choreographer revealed last summer that he was hitting the gym regularly to stay in shape.

He told the Daily Star his sessions include hundreds of sit-ups and press-ups, as well as pumping iron.

“I have to start my day with this workout as I am getting older and rounder,” he admitted.

It’s clearly working for him as nobody could look at his recent pictures and accuse him of being “round!”

Go Bruno!
